Dudley Tower - Wausau, Wisconsin
Summary by Kristy Bokelman
GROUP 1
The Macro-Scale: Overall Concept
This group was very focused on the accommodation of ADA
accessibility.
A major goal for them was that throughout
the design, ADA concerns be at the forefront rather than an
afterthought. Other concepts developed included: the land
use should accommodate merging the existing professional
kayak identity with the lay-person skill level; a visual iconic
connection should be created on the north end, and a physical
connection towards the middle and south end of the site. Also, it
was recommended that in the NW area adjacent to the site, the
historic brick homes be retained and renovated to attract single
family owners. The group felt that the concept for the riverfront
plan should not compete with the next planning stage at the 400
Block square, but try to compliment it.
The Micro-Scale: Particular Concepts
Specific ADA related recommendations included cantilever
platforms over the river to allow persons with disabilities to
experience the water and that ramped areas should coincide
with terraced areas to allow all users the same experience
throughout the site. The group’s goal is to attract 30-50 year
olds and promote activities for general health by providing areas
to accommodate as many year round activities as possible.
Winter snow-shoe paths were specifically mentioned. It was also
suggested to open up the creek to the river to bring boaters /
kayakers physically into the site.
Regarding connectivity, a pedestrian bridge was proposed to
serve as a visual icon, while more bike paths throughout the
city would further extend the physical connection for residents in
other neighborhoods.
The group values creating a learning environment throughout
the site. One idea was to create a scavenger hunt for school
groups with historical stories from residents, historical artifacts,
wildlife + vegetation information, etc. Other amenities they
envision are: freshwater museum, restrooms and concessions,
fine dining restaurant, rooftop dining, sporting goods rental
facility, functional public art, and good signage from the highway
to connect to Granite Peak Ski Hill.
Precedents Mentioned:

GROUP 2
Macro-Scale: Overall Concept
The group included members from a number of professional
groups, i.e. environmental engineer, architect, business persons,
city hall staff, among others. The group primarily focused on
environmental issues associated with the site, and explored how
the site could be developed as a natural oasis keeping in mind
what developmental and economic support would be needed.
The group identified five major themes:
1. In flood plain area - green space and reclamation of
the natural creek.
2. Connectivity and accessibility to and from nearby
residential area and streets
3. Integrating redevelopment of nearby city blocks that
contain huge buildings or huge parking lots with the east river
planning/development
4. Mixed use buildings (less residential, more small
commercial) that embrace public access to and use of the river
5. Restored and enhanced Barker Stewart Ave and
Bridge Street.
5. Given Barker Stewart Island’s importance to the City and
region – both in a historic and an ecological sense – the current
bridge to the island should be enhanced as a major pedestrian
access crossing the river. Such enhancement may help in creating
a unique element on the site and experiential and education
activities connected to the history of logging that existed on the
Barker Stewart island could be offered to visitors. A children’s
museum, and an extended boardwalk along the river are other
possibilities.
6. The nearby residential neighborhood must be integrated
in all development process, and proper connections must be
maintained. Perhaps an overhead or under the tracks pedestrian
access could be created to link to the neighborhood on the
northeast part of the site. In terms of connection, the group also
discussed a possible extension of First Street to the river drive
under the Bridge St. bridge.
Micro-Scale: Particular Concepts
1. A natural landscape be maintained along the river and areas
adjacent. As a major resource the river should be incorporated
with leisure, recreational as well as educational activities. The
flood plain triangle [map] should be the primary green space and
well connected with the bike trail.
2. Potential soil contamination and current connection of the
natural creek to the storm sewer are major concerns about the
ability to develop the site.
3 Valuable riverfront land on the site should not be used/wasted
for parking. Parking be provided on nearby city blocks.
4. Redevelop the blocks just east of the site that contain a big
box building or mostly parking lot as mixed use with provision
of some integrated (either underground or hidden somehow)
parking. Such development will not only improve the aesthetic
and economic quality of the area but also allow the creation of a
pedestrian friendly link/connection to the downtown.
4 Because of the need of economic/service base for the site a
mixed use (residential-commercial) option may be necessary.
However, guide any new development so that public access and
views to riverfront are not compromised and no large structure
obscure the view of the river.

June 29, 2011
WHAT ACTIVITIES ARE PRESENT THAT CAN INCLUDE PEOPLE FROM
VARYING AGE GROUPS AND USER TYPES ?
Summary by Sahana Goswami
CAN A FAMILY SPEND AN ENTIRE DAY HERE? WHAT ARE THE AMENITIES
A FAMILY WOULD REQUIRE IF THE AGE GROUP COMPRISES TODDLERS
TO AGING GRANDPARENTS?
GROUP 4
The groups saw this space as an extension of the Downtown
River District with certain characteristics.
A wide open and multi-use trail was envisioned. The site as a
whole should be an “urban space” defined as a space attracting
not just families but also young professionals for leisure activities
by offering “polished amenities”. These amenities were described
as boutique shops, local foods and wares (farmer’s markets) –
items to purchase or simply experience.
Destinations such as a farmers market were important as initial
destination, but, once there, other activities would attract your
participation.
Connecting to the downtown area is essential, maybe with the
loop trail incorporating educational stations and so on. Re-use
is an essential feature of redevelopment. Retain the historic
industrial identity, but also add modern features to maintain the
interest of a wide demographic.
The conclusion of this group was that the space should incorporate
public use spaces, which can be used in a variety of ways by different
user types. It was envisioned as a free-space where one and all could
gather and have a choice of activities to partake in.
But the over-arching concern was to design the space such that it has
a timeless appeal, and would be in use just as much twenty years
into the future. The need is not for fixed activities or spaces, but an
adaptable design which can integrate new uses and activities as the
demographic and population changes in the City of Wausau.
Safety and security - Reference was made to existing trail on
Barker Stewart Island – there is a perception of low safety
(especially for movement of a single individual). The trail – should
be guided with stops for interaction. Especially for families with
children – describing the History- Ecology- Biology of the area.
Access - To the site from the water (by kayak, pontoons etc.).
Coordinate programing of leisure opportunities at this site with
other leisure opportunities in the region. Also, consider the
dam which is as well as water currents before selecting water
activities.
To the water - Daylight the creek and create easier connection
to the water via a boardwalk or cantilevered walkway or pier and
by removing overgrown vegetation.
To public spaces - Especially from proximal existing buildings,
make sure public is aware of these spaces . Reference to existing
farmers market which is so cut off from downtown by the mall,
people can only come here to buy produce but cannot connect
the remaining shopping district.
Parking at entrance of development and other entrances to trail
and site must be connected to downtown. These elements should
not separate/ segregate the area.
Activities on river can include bird watching (reference to the
local osprey population). Offer a bigger area for bird-watching
activity. Reference to Minneapolis and the eagle watching activity.

Summary by Sara Khorshidifard
In terms of other landscape elements, trees were mentioned as
obstructing the ability to see and utilize the riverfront. A senior
in the group asked for a space to be designated along the site to
eat lunch, picnic, and play with grandchildren. Creative abstract
signage and sculptural elements were selected from images
presented as was off site or greenery buffered parking.
Low-impact land uses were requested and some members asked
for the relocation of Wausau’s existing Farmers Market/Garden
to a site close to the river along with other amenities such as
gardens where local people can grow food. Such catalytic projects
would generate income for the community. For some members,
crime was a concern and they described the incidents that had
occurred on the site.
This group’s overall concept is to create a year round, humanoriented landscape that will offer a river edge full of a variety of
rather slow-paced, activities. Incorporating as many elements as
possible to connect humans and activities, the group felt would
give people positive “feelings” about the site and lead to people
spending the whole day at the river’s edge and traversing the
Riveredge trail. The group also discussed how the site could
serve as a “place” where various types of users can “plan a day
on the river’s edge.”
If, in order to generate tax revenue for the City, multi-level,
residential units were to be built on the northern end of the
site, this group wanted the street level spaces to be dedicated
to public use. Mixed-use developments were preferred; they
would provide residents with easy accessibility to the riveredge
amenities envisioned and, also, encourage others to visit the
site because of the additional attractions that the lower level
businesses would provide, i.e., a coffee shop, boating equipment
and bike rental outlets.
The groups wanted visitors to see Wausau as a welcoming,
“small town like” place, one said, NOT like Chicago. Leisure was
mentioned as the site’s major purpose where all ages and skill
levels could access the river according to their needs. Quiet
contemplative experiences and boats with restricted speed levels
were suggested.
Bio-remediation of the contaminated sites, an idea presented
by the CDS team, seemed interesting to the group, but the
exact location was not determined and they wanted to know the
timeline, for instance, when to start on it and how long it will take
to clean up the sites.
GROUP 5
The potential for creating more public open space in the flood
plain area was identified. At the flood plain’s edges a ‘harbor’
might be designed to extend into the river. Some fishing spots
and a small boat landing deck could also be located nearby.
Making accommodations for small boats, kayaks, piers, and
permanent long-shore docking were discussed. The community
envisioned the harbor to have a tiered surface descending
towards the water with cafes, restaurants, and seating areas
on various stages. The group wanted a restaurant with terrace
gathering space, balcony seating, a restaurant that gives the
feel of being “on the water.”
The group suggested that connecting Barker Island (to be
renamed Ecology Island) to the riverscape was a great educational
opportunity. Expanding on this idea, the group discussed creating
an “Urban Ecology Center” towards the Bridge Street entry that
could generate additional ecological activities for kids.
Other ideas generated were: design 1st and Fulton as the
major entries to the site; buffer parking surfaces with greenery;
create other connections to Barker Island; develop a kayaking
interpretive trail on the river; and, enhance the Riveredge trail.
The group reviewed particular elements the park might contain
and viewed images of a variety of designs for the various
elements. Lighting was identified as an important element
because, in the winter, the river site is dark and uninviting after
4 PM.

GROUP 6
One of the major concepts mentioned was that it is important
to retain as much green / natural area as possible. They also
want some designed areas, but a careful combination of the
two should be examined. This focus group was also concerned
with retaining as many of the existing buildings as possible for
adaptive reuse. Although maintaining much of the existing site
was important, a more important concept to them was to create
a space that served as an oasis from the surrounding downtown
to create a sense of seclusion and enclosure, a space the would
also provide year round, multi-use areas.
The youth group felt that the 400 Block had a formal feeling to
it, and prefer that this site, in contrast, serve as a more multifunctional and inviting space. It was discussed that there would
be a mix of modern materials used to create both physical and
visual connections. An example given would be to continue the
red brick pavers used throughout downtown into our site. Minimal
concrete and maximum green space was again mentioned.
Retaining the southern loop bike path was discussed as a way to
create another physical connection to adjacent neighborhoods
and retain the historical integrity of the old railroad line.
Some amenities and activities requested were a disc golf course,
coffee shops, large patio areas for gathering, community garden
plots, rooftop gardens, re-location for the farmer’s market, and
a community arts building. The focus group unanimously agreed
that the site should accommodate year round use including
activities such as sledding, snow-shoeing, snow sculpting, ice
carving, etc. Summer activities mentioned include fishing,
canoeing kayaking, pontoon boating (provide moveable / floating
docks), fireworks watching, bird watching, reading, etc.

GROUP 8
The youth group envisioned a leisure use space with many
unprogrammed youth based activities. They talked of large open
green spaces for picnics and games, but felt there was no need
for large, formal ball parks. One of the major concerns this group
had was how to bring people down to the area.
One of the suggestion was to have a small performance stage.
This zone was described as a space with an urban feel to it.
Hardscaped areas with sculptures and interactive elements
with seating elements would be integrated into the design
to accommodate large numbers of people (such as Bean at
Millennium Park in Chicago).
The youth group wanted direct and close access to the water
They talked of a boardwalk or dock leading all the way into the
water. There was no distinct preference for dense vegetation
along boardwalk.
The youth wanted small-scale businesses in this district –
eateries, cafes, sandwich places and these should extend all
the way to the water. The water access was the most appealing
feature for the youth.
Rather than trying to re-use / retain the existing buildings on
site, the group favored judicious re-use. They thought that the
south side should be left without change or minimal intervention
be considered. The building foundations on site could be used for
games courses such as BMX biking or skateboarding.
There was some discussion on access from close to Bridge Street
(North end of site) with parking spaces adjacent (preferably on
the N side of site) and consensus that large surface parking lots
were not to be created nor multi-level structures that blocked
the view of the river.
Day lighting the creek was an interesting concept for the youth
group, and they envisioned a bridge crossing over it to continue
the boardwalk along the river.

GROUP 9
Everyone in this group was a student at Wausau East High
School. Visibility, peacefulness, walkability, viewing and seating
destinations, entry clarity, flexibility, and winter activities were
the key themes in the session. The youth particularly asked
for a peaceful Riveredge concept with a feeling of openness
and activities that are contemplative, rather than noisy and
strenuous. This group proposes that this section of the river be
seamlessly woven into the City of Wausau and that the final
design rely more on the river. They also declared that the river’s
edge should be more visible from all directions. For this group,
an important goal is how to design the site for winter use.
Some specific ideas were: 1st+Fulton can become a tree lined
boulevard with many designed benches with greenery along it;
create more romantic spots along this promenade; and integrate
street food venders (they mentioned Navy Pier in Chicago)
The youths also suggested that the left-over slab towards the
south be developed into a small museum that also exhibits
aspects of the history of Wausau. Posters and history boards
(of the mills….) can be integrated along the river bike path (they
mentioned Patriot Center and Cedar Creek as examples).
Extending from the flood plain towards the river, the group asked
for a design of an ”oasis” harbor that goes into the water with
unique nightlife, offering some cafes and restaurants.
The necessity of higher visibility and access from Bridge Street to
the site was discussed, and flexible spaces for various activities
were proposed. Some specific recommendations included: ideas
of places to play frisbee; no more huge boat landings such as
at 6th Street; and no need for another skate park (there are
two of them with big jumps in Wausau). The group suggested a
performance stage for “amateurs’ to play here and then go and
play in the 400 block square (they said it may be in concrete,
and in a half-circle shape). Large trees could define the bike
paths, but, in the group’s perspective, there should be no thickly
forested area. The winter activities mentioned included iceskating, ice-fishing and ice-sculpturing. A Chalkfest and fishing
were suggested for summer.
Page 9
June 29, 2011
GROUP 10
The major themes of this focus session were: in order to create
strong connectivity, implement a public transportation loop
to take tourists and community residents between downtown
and the east riverfront; the park should have a ‘destination’
amenity to draw not only local residents, but also tourists (the
400 Block already provides a smaller scale venue); and, develop
connections to other areas of Wausau, such as Granite Peak Ski
Area, upstream of the Wisconsin River to attract resident boaters.
Regarding materials, they proposed a careful combination of
natural and designed spaces as opposed to all natural or all
designed.
This group had many ideas about how to realize their overall
concepts. Improved connectivity: The public transportation loop
could be an expansion of the bus system or a new trolly loop.
Either system would promote a more European way to link the
downtown to the park and businesses.
The most ambitious proposal was construction of a large scale
amenity such as an amphitheater to accommodate big name
musical acts, which could spur larger development such as
renovation of the Landmark Hotel or new construction of larger
multi-use or commercial buildings. Since the master plan for
the downtown includes construction of a large scale civic center,
the group cautioned that these large scale projects should all
be considered during the design of this project so as not to
‘overbuild’ on the site.
Other amenities discussed included dining options from a more
affordable scale to fine dining, micro-brewery, kayak and sporting
goods store and rental, patio areas that are not located outside
of a bar (more open air cafe / coffee shop-type businesses).
Activity related ideas included the importance of creating activity
specific areas as well as open areas, which could promote many
types of uses. Safety was also a concern, keeping in mind how
Barker Stewart Island has zero visibility in some areas. This
should be remedied in conjunction with this current project.

GROUP 11
This group consisted of community members who were either
historians or had a strong interest in the areas history and
identity. So, the discussion started and focused on the identity
as the major theme.
Identity:
The group came up with concepts for the future of the riverfront
site and downtown Wausau based on their expectations of how
Wausau was likely to develop over the next 10 years. It was felt
that mixed use, low rise development best fit the East Riverfront
and it should not be over commercialized. One concept driving
the vision was to integrate into the site urban elements such
as historic relics with green space, both natural and designed
as well as both outdoor sports and cultural activities. Another
concept was the importance of the Wisconsin River itself.
Community members participating
in discussion and design charrette.
The group then reduced the big theme of identity into specific
activities and associated design ideas:
Key Activities:
Key activities could include functions with historic and scenic
value, which would encourage educational, cultural activities and
public art along the river. Shuttles and trolleys could provide
access to the Riverfront. Restaurants could use the river as their
theme and houses could incorporate the design characteristics
of the area. A completed Riveredge Parkway trail would have
natural and designed green space. There would be a loop from
point A to point B, which could be used for biking, walking,
running etc., and also connect the site to Third Street and the
Downtown City Center.
Details:
The group consensus was that the concepts developed for the
East Riverfront District should extend to entire river front. Also
the area should be used year round including park uses and
Barker Island. Following a mixed use concept, uses could include
housing, restaurants, retail (unique, educational, cultural,
historical, natural resources, habitat, wildlife, river heritage,
leisure. Concerns included: parking access (not creating a
bottleneck); how the Flood Plain section which does not allow
construction would be designed; and, permission and easements
might be needed from the Railroad Company. The group decided
not to select exact sites their proposed developments, leaving
those decisions to be made when the activities are finalized in
the Wausau East Riverfront Master Plan.

June 29, 2011
GROUP 13
The group talked of providing access to the area from both south
and north. Low- density, high end condos, which would probably
mainly attract retirees was envisioned. Private and separated
space from the public use areas was deemed essential for these
residential areas as well as private access to waterfront.
An esplanade with paved areas and high level of finish, completely
separated from the residential areas was suggested. The plaza
should be sophisticated, layered hardscape to distinguish from
remainder of riverfront. This development site should connect
easily to other downtown areas and contain businesses as
art, which would not compete with the existing downtown stores
such as galleries, a marina, boat repair or rentals.
This group talked of an all- year round use trail which must
be wide enough to incorporate biking and walking without
endangering either user type. Also this trail was to be cleared
so as to be usable in winter as well. Other leisure and business
activities must be integrated along this path such as recreational
equipment rentals – water activities – canoes, kayaks, bicycles,
roller blades.
Other Suggestions:
Incorporate a vibrant nightlife. Provide entertainment on the
waterfront. Offer more passive activities, not more ball-fields.
Make this a recreational – entertainment district. (Maybe
incorporate a movie theater in the design). Expand what is
envisioned in this development to surrounding neighborhoods
by developing residential condos in adjoining parcels to the east
and south-east (more like Brownstone developments, or with a
common wall to increase yard spaces or zero lot lines).
Use a reclaimed, natural creek as a buffer between public use
and private spaces.

GROUP 14
The participants in this session were mostly stakeholders
from the West Wausau area. They indicated and highlighted
particularly that the Downtown area is not merely limited to the
east side but is also partly on the west side. This was very useful
for the CDS team to know because it highlighted the importance
of envisioning a connection between the two sides of the river.
According to the group, a goal for the Near West master plan
design should include connecting the primary site both to the
downtown section on the east side and to the portion of the
downtown on the west side of the river.
The key concept for this group was to create a modern and
“urbane,” family-oriented and safe, landscape with a variety
of use types. A unique, modern and high-end appearance is
preferred that ties the riverscape to the architectural design of
the 400 Block.
Some specific concepts from the group centered on the best
ways to develop the flood plain zone into a green space that
could act as a spatial divider between the mixed-use type
developments to the north and the public buildings and facilities
south of the flood plain. They suggested that Fulton street, along
with the Fox 55 building, could act as a wide boulevard and the
major connection to the city.
According to the group, the leftover slab could be turned into an
aquarium building, and, close to it, towards the southern edge
of the site, a visitor center could be located. Also, a bike rental
center was proposed.
Urban, artsy, trendy, and modern were the key adjectives with
which this west side group described the landscape elements.
Specifically, artistic murals as well as historic markers could be
placed on the trails and walking paths. Adding light and signage
to the West Riverfront as well as ADA accessibility throughout
the site were some other elements considered.
Four major entry points were marked by the group and a few
sites outside the project’s primary boundary were envisioned to
serve as external parking facilities. The group looked at the site
more holistically than the other two groups and connected other
nodes outside the primary boundary for future development.
These included a movie theatre complex, an indoor year-around
public market (like one in Seattle), and outdoor food vending
(like Boston’s Quincy Market).
